Wife passed away and I've been away from the phones for three years or so. Just now opening boxes received in 2016. This H13 was in one of those boxes. Fully date matched from 1950. Body dated 6-16-50. Let me know if there is any interest in this. I'm going to start selling off some candlesticks and ringer boxes. 20-B, 20-S, 20PC, 51AL (2AX dial), etc. OST receiver. Lots of bell boxes. I'll be listing it all in the For Sale section.

I'm with Doug, this is one of my favorite 302 variations. I took some scrap Lexan and using a heat gun and a junk F1 formed a cradle lift for mine. I used a couple of pieces of small sticky "snot" tape so it couldn't slide. Then I made another variation for my 1942 red 302 because I really wanted to show off the solid red plungers. Similar idea to the other but it works. Lexan is cheap from a place like Home Depot.

Cool way to display your phones.

Really nice design to show off the 302s. If you sell the H13 holder, I would be a customer.....Doug

Those are a nice display idea. How did you stop the red handset from falling at that angle?

The Lexan and sticky tape you mention I am not familiar with. Would you start a thread detailing exactly how you made these? Saying which tools are needed, jigs, method etc?

Thread is over 5 years old so the eBay listing will have long gone.

Sorry, the recent posts were from today. I didn't realise the thread was resurrected.

I have one of these but the cradle is not lettered. I have not removed the case yet. I need to see if it is marked H 13. I am guessing probably not. Case was probably swapped before I got it. Any body got an extra case?
